For over 85 years, the Aurora Chamber of Commerce has been the voice of the Eastern Metro business community — advocating, connecting, and creating conditions for every member to thrive.
To Serve and Represent Our Members so Their Businesses and Our Community Will Prosper.
A dynamic business environment in the Eastern Metro area, driven by innovation, collaboration, and community engagement.
Catalyst for growth. Convener of leaders. Champion for a thriving community.
What Is The Chamber?
A primary objective of The Chamber is to create a positive business environment and encourage growth and long-term economic vitality. Chamber members can access key business, political, and community leaders in order to influence the course of commerce on all levels.
The Chamber is NOT a branch of the government, a club, or a political organization. And while it IS a member of both the Colorado Association of Commerce and Industry and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, it is not a branch of either.
The Chamber's budget depends almost entirely on the financial investments of our members, and is a non-profit organization whose membership dues are tax deductible.
Over 85 Years Serving Aurora
Founded in 1939, the Aurora Chamber began as a small group of business leaders with a shared vision — and has grown alongside Aurora into one of the region's most dynamic and impactful business organizations.
Mission & Vision
Everything the Aurora Chamber does flows from two core commitments — to our members and to our community.
